LOCATIONS — THE RIVERINA

Riverina rural finance.

The Riverina is one of Australia's most intensively productive agricultural regions. The Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area around Griffith and Leeton supports citrus, stone fruit, wine grapes, rice, and horticultural vegetables under irrigation. Wagga Wagga anchors significant mixed-enterprise farming — broadacre cropping, sheep, and beef. The Young and Cowra districts carry intensive stone fruit and cherry orchards. Water entitlements are a defining feature of Riverina agriculture — they often represent significant value separate from land title.
